Single-mast sloops transformed sailing by combining simplicity with superior windward performance
9 Feb 2026

Why is the sloop rig considered more efficient for sailing upwind compared to square rigs?
Because its fore-and-aft rig with a single headsail and mainsail allows it to sail closer to the wind direction.
Because it has multiple masts that catch more wind from all directions.
Because having more sails always increases speed regardless of rig type.
